Blog #53: Mr Murphy and Microchip PIC Silicon Bugs
« on: October 11, 2010, 06:15:39 am »
Its almost 2:30AM and I just spent 6 fucking hours trying to figure why the dam ADC pins wouldn't work on a pic32 only to find that the problem is listed in the datasheet errata right after I make post on microchip's forum about it.  >:(

Blog #53 is now on top of my bookmark list.
Don't blame me. I'm the mechanical engineer.

I recently got smoked for not checking the datasheet errata FIRST.

Now it's your turn!

lucky for both of you. i've came accross a PIC16F690 ADC ANA0 errata that is not in the sheet, still cannot solve until today. project put on halt, and "worked around" already.
